Look how good I do!
Sticking with a resolution for a whole two days in a row.
Clear masking isolates the horses' legs from the water, allowing me to scrub out highlights. The texture work on the horses is done with a toothbrush.. *spatter spatter*.. and a sponge. In person it looks rather like a bird egg, which I like. It needs more darks, though.. I am such a pansy about putting good darks in; no idea why, when I like them so. Probably because when adding them in paint, it's distressingly easy to screw something up, a-heh.
Photographed outside, sun behind the clouds, in the shade. Sitting in the yard, hence the grass peeking up from the bottom.. hello, bits of grass.
